Leavens, E. Wul One of the important matters be- fore the board was the selection of a new superintendent of schools in the district, to fill the vacancy eflund by thé death of Nathan L. Bishop. The committee named at the last meeting to have the matter in mind reported through Chalrman Browning that there had been about a dozen applications for the place, including a number from out of town and some from out of the state. These applicants were considered, but the ‘board was unanimous in its selection of William D. Tillson, principal of examining, Dr. J. H. Allen, A, Thltci 1 for Such Action—Or- ucuna superintendent of the district and principal of Broadway school for the remainder of the year, with the privilege that if he d-tre /at the end of the year to return to the princi- palship he can do so. The board be- lieves that they have the rigiit man in Mr. Tillson, who has since Mr. Bish- was taken il has been looking after duties of the office, A pleasing feature in connection with the appointment, especially to Mr, Tiison as well as to the board, as 'indicative of the feelings of the corps of teachers in the district hoth as to his qualifications and_efficlency, was a petition from the 37 teachers of the district to the board asking that Mr. Tillson be appointed the su- perintendent. Not one teacher failed to sign the petition. The selection of an assistant in the senior room was left with Acting Superintendent Till- Son and the visiting and examining committee. The calendar for the year was adopted and bills were approved. The resolutions adopted by the hoard upon the death of - Superintendent Bishop were ordered puf in the annual report.

The board wishes there. were more like him, There have been 4,000 blank lists with instructions sent out to -owners of property, including non-residents, Appended to the note by the board is the new law relative to the handing in of lists. There are Wany non-resi- dents who are complying with the re— quirement that they must send in their list the same as residents. Already a 1arge portion of the lists are in, but the board receives them for two weeks more before ten percenting them. ‘The need of a card system is impera- tive for the successful operation of the department, state the members, and it is expected that it will be secured, as the board of selectmen have authorized them to secure what is' necessary to put the officé on the proper basis.

The quarterly meeting of the McAll auxiliary, which was held on- Mon- day afternoon at the home of the president. Miss Mary L. Huntington, on Broadway, was one of special in- terest. George T. Berry, the wield sccretary of the American McAll mis- sion, was present and gave an inter- esting talk upon the prospects and work of the misslon. As Mr, Berry has just returned from France, where he went over the field to study the work, his words were autheritative and of fresh interest, His report was most encouraging. He opencd the meeting with Scripture reading and prayer. After referring lovingly to Mrs. E. B. Huntington and her devo- tion to the. mission, he spoke of his satisfying visit in France. The pray- er of the association is beginniug to e answered. The church and others are seeing tie need of this work and coming to an appreciation of work in Latin lands, -of which Dr. McAll was the ploneer. The mission study taken up by the church this winter is upon the gospel in Latin lands. The daily papers are full of events in these countries which are bringing this need to_the attention of the.whole world. He spoke of the celebration at Ge- neva in July and of John Calvin, who made the United States possible. The balance of power has passed from Catholic to Protestant rule because there the gospel is better preached and better lived. Day has dawned upon the world, The greatest problem now is the reconstructing of faith in those iands where the reformation was put down. Geneva is the fountain head of all modern life, and Calvin & great seer and prophet who saw that the life of the community would show its religion. It is not proselyting to carry the gospel to France. The people are done with an imposed religion; there is great antagonism to the priests &nd hatred of the word church. The Mc- All mission séems to have a new lease of life with devotéd men to stand at the head. Mr. Berry spoke of the sup- pleness of the mission, which found the point of view of all sorts and con- ditions of men in order to help each one. As illustration he described the work at the Maison Verte—with its ecoles and garde to keep the school children from 4 to 6 and help them in their legsons for the next day, the conference® contradictoire, where the men come to listen to debates on pop- ular questions, the amusement provid- ed in moving pictures and other ways to overcome this antagonism and make religion respectab) He also spoke of other more freely moving agencies, the two canal boats, \the new portable hall, La Semeuse, recently given by Miss Helen Gould, and now being used near Litle, of M. Sainton in his sutomobile and the £00d he is doing. Demoeracy is grow- ing in France and liberty has not been so great there for 230 vears. Let us help them against many appealing evil forces and gain France to co-operate with us. There will rise up other La Fayettes to help us solve the question of saving China, India, of all Asia. The usual reports of secretary and treasurer were read by Miss Ruth Huntington and Mrs. H. Howe. Miss Huntington gave a delightful ac- count of a visit to New Haven last Saturday when the New Haven McAll celebrated its 30th anniversary. WEDDING. Harrington-Sands.
